This bugged me four (or three?) builds ago. Have to perform clean install. No such problems in latest builds (for me)

Yeah, same here, Andre, but it's back.

As said before, not for me. I have other bugs this time :) Action center became unresponsive from time to time, also right click on taskbar icons, etc

Try resetting power options.

Edit: speaking too early :) PC didn't wake from sleep... first time this build, so MS was playing with us somehow. Something changed

That is what's strange, Andre . . . I didn't encounter the "no wakey" problem when Build 14986 first was released to us; it came only a couple or three days ago. As Red Buttons would say, "Strange things are happening . . . "

And it is confirmed now. Second time in the row.. PC won't wake, have to push hard button... Only thing that was updated was USB device driver (according to reliability history..) "wpdfs.inf_amd64_5ac09b774eb0ba04\wpdfs.inf"

My old HP desktop computer running build 14986 started crashing every time it came out of sleep. I thought it was because I started having a problem getting it to power up. Before I could find out what was wrong the desktop died. I then put the SSD into another HP desktop and I was still having the same crashing problem as I had on the other computer. Using the HP software I found they had several updated drivers. After updating the drivers my desktop stopped crashing. It may be worth checking for new drivers. :)

Thanks, Winuser. I've done a clean install and am waiting to see if the problem pops back up. Meanwhile, I'll check, to see if HP has anything; however, this desktop has seen multiple "down to bare metal" installations, and even BIOS (UEFI) updates, etc., but I'll look to see if anything new jumps out at me.

Those of you with resume from edge issues - is fast start enabled in power options?

14986 slowed my Internet connection from the usual ~59mb/sec to less than 2. I found MS had updated my TP-Link T4UH wi-fi adapter driver to a newer version (1030.11.503.2016 dated 10/26/2016) than TP-Link has available on their site (1030.2.731.2015 dated 9/25/2015). When I deleted the newer driver and tried to install the current one at TP-Link, 14986 immediately replaced it with the new version. No setting changes improved matters. Speed problem solved by using a different adapter (Netgear).

UPDATE: Completely uninstalled the newer T4UH driver and successfully reinstalled the older one. It's working perfectly now. :)
